Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Kalua pig (shredded)
- 1 cup Carrots (julienned)
- 1 cup Cabbage (shredded)
- 3 stalks Green onions (sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 12 pieces Spring roll wrappers
- 1 piece Egg (beaten)
- 3 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.5 cup Sweet chili sauce (for dipping)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded Kalua pig, julienned carrots, shredded cabbage, and sliced green onions.
Add soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the bowl. Toss everything together until the filling is evenly mixed.
Take one spring roll wrapper and place it on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you, creating a diamond shape.
Spoon 2 tablespoons of the filling onto the lower part of the wrapper, leaving a small border around the edges.
Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling and roll tightly upward. Fold in the side corners to create an envelope shape, then continue rolling until sealed.
Brush the top corner of the wrapper with a small amount of beaten egg to seal the roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C).
Carefully fry the spring rolls in batches, about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
Transfer the fried spring rolls to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve warm with sweet chili sauce for dipping.
